A shrine maiden (also known as a miko) is a person devoted to the faith in the Cardinal Gods. They take care of shrines and protect their altars. Shrine maidens are technically members of the Maze Personnel and as such, work technically for the Administrator, but they are known to have a true neutral stance.

Shrine maidens, as per religious tradition, are always female and virgins. The typical occupations of a shrine maiden involve distributing omikuji (japanese fortune), chasing away wicked youkai (exorcism), making offerings to the Gods, and receiving (rare) donations.

They have no particular relationships to other members of Maze Personnel, are friends of youkai and scare away wicked youkai. With other creatures, shrine maidens are mostly left in peace - only the mindless or the least intelligent creatures would become technically hostile to shrine maidens. Even then, it is quite rare.

Because the job of shrine maiden is exclusively devoted to faith, they are not paid any salary and must rely on donations to survive. Non-wicked youkai are the most frequent donators to shrine maidens in the Mazes.
